I mean she is getting an unnecessary amt of hate including threats. She alr apologized & took accountability, what’s the reasoning to continue to go out of your way to send hate? Also, how do yk she doesn’t feel the same abt Yulissa? Ppl basically said “not surprised, get her out” for Yulissa & moved on in 2 secs
so you think she deserves death threats, to be told to k*ll herself, her family and friends being threatened? what if she actually committed? would u be happy? say she deserved it? like seriously she did something wrong, she shouldn’t have a platform, but the ppl sending extreme hate are no better than her.
How are yall not grasping that I’m saying the context of how it was used was different? Cierra literally used a slur to describe a negative trait about herself that she didn’t like so obviously she had bad racist intentions behind it. Yulissa used the word in casual conversation as a substitute for the word man, still racist and still bad, but it wasn’t used with racist intentions. Both still bad, both still deserved to leave the show, both still needed to apologize.
Where am I arguing against the fact that they both said a slur? I literally said both were bad and racist. All I am saying is that IF you were going to forgive one over the other it would make more sense to forgive Yulissa just given the fact that the context and intention behind it was different.
Huh?? My comment was a reply to the original post not any of the comments. And the post was about giving grace so that’s where my comment came from. I’m not making anything up and I’m certainly not mad. In fact I’ve been pretty calm unlike some others. And of course I don’t think anyone deserves death threats what????
i understand i just think you should have worded it differently my fault for taking what you said at face value to be clear i agree that the way cierra used it was definitely more harmful but at the end of they say they both said a slur and if you want to take in the context of how they said it you need to take in the context of the entire situation which is that at least cierra has taken accountability and not said it
I said both were bad. Both were racist. Both needed to leave the show. Both needed to apologize. BUT the words were used in different ways and I am a firm believer that intention and context is always important. Is it an excuse? NO! BUT if you’re gonna “give grace” to one over the other maybe take a look at the intention and context.
No, go find urs- they’re both harmful but to different communities/people and it’s important to follow what the people who are actually affected in these situations. Nowhere am I defending Cierra or saying she should be forgiven when I say this but for Yulissa it was not only the slur but being raging MAGA and other harmful things and narratives too. and that’s why there’s never room in the convo about Y*lissa.
